Yeah, but he also brought Treebeard to Isengard, leading the ents to overthrow Saruman. Did that not make the list?
He did plenty. In the movie he lit the beacon to call Rohan. Fought in the battle for Minas Tirith, where he saved Gandalf’s life. Saved Faramir’s life. Saved Merry’s life.
Sauron himself questioned Pippin and came away with the conclusion that he should apply his army and attention toward Minas Tirith and Gondor rather than continuing to look for the real ring-bearer right under his nose. Essentially made the entire gambit with Frodo possible.
This has been a pro-Pippin PSA
Gandalf woke the Balrog.
It’s an abandoned mine, things are going to fall and make noise from time to time and they’re probably used to it.
You know what doesn’t happen all the time in a mine?
People don’t yell “Fool of a Took!” In the language of your sworn enemy at the top of their lungs.Technically it’s not how it happened in the book IIRC. Nobody was throwing corpses into that well. Just stones. And it wasn’t in the hall of Mazarbul. It was in some guards’ room near the gate.
Their entry into Moria, bothering the nice guy guarding it, was enough to wake the Balrog.
merely a flesh wound
got better in the sense that he recovered and improved, so its a double-win if you think about it.
